"Your uncle wants to see me?" Li Xiyue was very surprised.
She has already made it clear to Xu Xiangyang. His uncle should also know that there is nothing between her and Xu Xiangyang. Why would he want to see her?
Xu Xiangyang said: "If you are willing, you can go. If you don't want to, I will talk to my uncle clearly."
Li Xiyue hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go with you."
Anyway, she has a clear conscience, so it doesn't hurt to go and meet him.
"The day I went to see you, I made it clear with Liu Hongtiao. She shouldn't bother you again." Xu Xiangyang said on the way.
Li Xiyue thought to herself, you are wrong. Liu Hongtiao later caused trouble for her again.
However, since he has already made it clear with Liu Hongtiao, it is none of his business if Liu Hongtiao still comes to seek trouble. It is Liu Hongtiao's own problem.
It’s just a pity that Liu Hongtiao was born in such a good family, but she ruined such a good hand for a man who didn’t love her. It’s really sad.
It is impossible to sympathize with Liu Hongtiao. What she has suffered today is all her own fault and she cannot blame anyone else.
"She has no time to bother me now," said Li Xiyue.
Xu Xiangyang nodded. She had heard about Liu Hongtiao's affairs, but it had nothing to do with him, so he ignored it.
There was no conversation along the way until we arrived at Xu Xiangyang's house.
His house is quite big. Behind the main hall is the main house, and there are wing rooms on the east and west sides. Xu Xiangyang's uncle Xu Jianmin lives in the east wing.
There was a woman about twenty-two or twenty-three years old standing in the yard. She looked okay, but her skin was dark yellow and she looked haggard.
Seeing Li Xiyue, the woman's eyes flashed with surprise. She stepped forward and greeted him with a smile, "This is Li Zhiqing, right?"
As the rumors said, she was a fairy-like person.
Li Xiyue looked at Xu Xiangyang in confusion.
Xu Xiangyang introduced, "This is Sister Xiulan."
"My name is Gao Xiulan, and my sister is Gao Xiuzhi." The woman added with a smile.
It turned out that she was the younger sister of the women's director Gao Xiuzhi. How could she be in Xu Xiangyang's house? Xu Xiangyang called her sister, not aunt, so she should not have married into Xu Xiangyang's family.
Gao Xiulan saw her confusion, lowered her head slightly, and said, "Let's talk about my affairs later. Brother Jianmin has been waiting for a long time. Xiangyang, you should take Li Zhiqing in first."
Xu Xiangyang nodded and took Li Xiyue into the east wing.
The room was dark, the windows were closed and the curtains were drawn, and a strange smell was smelling in it, but it was mostly the smell of medicine.
Xu Xiangyang walked to the window, pulled open the curtains, and opened the window. The sunlight rushed in, instantly dispelling the darkness and smell in the room.
Xu Jianmin on the bed felt uncomfortable for a moment and raised his hands to cover his eyes.
Li Xiyue looked at the bed and saw a very tall man, but very thin, so thin that he looked unrecognizable. His cheeks were sunken, his cheekbones were protruding, and his face was sallow. At first glance, he looked a little scary.
He was sitting against the head of the bed, his lower body covered with a thin quilt. Although he was very thin, he looked clean and refreshed, which showed that he was well taken care of.
Xu Jianmin adjusted for a while, took his hand away, and looked at the person beside the bed. She had a tall and slender figure, fair skin with a rosy glow, delicate facial features, and an oval face. She looked like someone who had walked out of a painting.
She has a natural demeanor, a calmness and composure that is not common at her age. Her eyes are clear and bright, which is truly unique. What's more, she is educated and has medical skills. These two points alone make her better than most women.
No wonder my nephew is attracted to her. Any man would be attracted to a woman like her.
"Xiangyang, get out." Xu Jianmin retracted his gaze and said to his nephew beside him.
Xu Xiangyang didn't move. He couldn't leave Li Xiyue alone. His uncle was emotionally unstable. What if he hurt her?
Xu Jianmin knew what his nephew was thinking, so he assured her, "I won't do anything to her."
Xu Xiangyang hesitated for a moment and walked out reluctantly.
"Sit down." Xu Jianmin glanced at the stool beside the bed and said to Li Xiyue.
Li Xiyue thanked him and sat down gently.
"Do you know why I called you here?"
Li Xiyue shook her head, "I don't know."
Seeing her frank and honest look, without a trace of scheming, Xu Jianmin clasped his hands together and spoke to himself, "In 1968, the first batch of educated youth arrived in our Red Sun Production Team. As the deputy leader of the first production team, I had to interact with them every day."
Li Xiyue was surprised. He called her over to tell her about his past?
Moreover, Xu Jianmin was actually the deputy captain of the first team?
"Although there were only two educated youth here, they were both incapable of carrying anything, especially the female educated youth, Lin Rou. She couldn't do any work and asked for leave every few days. She was so spoiled."
Lin Rou? That was the name of the educated youth who later married into the county.
Li Xiyue didn't disturb him and continued listening to him.
"That autumn, when I was passing by the river, I saw Lin Rou fall into the water. The situation was critical, and I didn't think about anything else. I jumped in to save her."
Li Xiyue's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he fell into the water on purpose to blame Xu Jianmin?
As expected, that's exactly what happened.
Xu Jianmin clenched his fists, the backs of his hands turning pale. "I was kind enough to save her, but she said I was taking advantage of her and threatened to die to get me to marry her."
Li Xiyue frowned. Isn’t this a real-life version of the story of the farmer and the snake?
"But I was already engaged at the time. Xiulan and I had already set a date for our wedding, so of course I wouldn't agree." Xu Jianmin gritted his teeth and continued, "But she said that if I didn't agree, she would report me to the police and sue me for hooliganism."
It turns out that Gao Xiulan was engaged to him before, no wonder Gao Xiulan was here.
"Xiangyang was about to join the army that year. If I had gone to jail, Xiangyang would not have been able to serve. For Xiangyang's future, I had no choice but to grit my teeth and agree."
